Abstract
A strip of sheet material is wound on a spool by a driving belt wrapped around spaced rollers of a surface winder which urge the sheet material into contact with the spool, rotating the spool, and at the same time, applying the sheet material to the spool, with layers of the material being separated by a liner wrapped around the spool as the sheet material is being applied.
